a bizarro MUST-SEE film and the best of the films Brando made while under contract to UNIVERSAL in the 60s. He's well paired with foxy Rita Moreno and it always helps to have Richard Boone on hand (reeking evil)

Uneven Euro crime thriller starts off incredibly slow - with a number of long takes where absolutely nothing happens - but it gets much better by the end. Some of the suspense sequences were expertly crafted, while others seemed strangely amateurish. Good performances, cinematography that is sometimes gritty and realistic and other times bland. But the 60s pop music score did get annoying.
